This flavorful tater tot casserole is easy to prepare and cook in the slow cooker or in the oven. Use frozen mixed vegetables or a blend of peas and carrots, and saute 1 cup of chopped onion with the ground beef if you like.
Ingredients
- 1 pound hamburger, browned and drained
- 1 (32 oz.) bag tater totsÂ
- 1 (about 16 oz.) bag frozen mixed vegetables (cooked)
- 2 cans (10 3/4 oz. each) of cream soup (mushroom or celery, take your pick)*
Steps to Make It
-
Gather the ingredients.
-
Put the ground beef in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook, stirring and breaking up until the beef is no longer pink.
-
Mix the browned ground beef with 1/2 bag of tater tots, cooked veggies, and soup.
-
Spoon into a greased baking dish or buttered slow cooker insert.
-
Layer the remaining tater tots on top.
-
Cover the pan with foil and bake in a preheated 350 FÂ oven for about 50 to 60 minutes; remove foil and continue cooking for 10 to 15 minutes.
-
Alternatively, layer (as above) in a greased slow cooker and cook on low for 5 to 7 hours—or about 3 hours on high.
-
Serve and enjoy!
Tip
